1. Order remarkable food from the right catering company

When thinking about your menu for your next picnic party, picking the right food is number 1.  Everyone who will attend may have different taste palates as Summer company picnic with BBQ Catering by Smokin Boneswell as dietary restrictions.  Ordering a variety of tasty barbeque munchies is essential in creating a delicious picnic menu.

Firstly, you need to pick a company that can meet the needs of all of your staff, a company that can do barbeque food and at the same time meeting everyone’s dietary limitations (vegan, vegetarian, kosher, halal or gluten-free).   Also, ensuring there are many tasty options on the barbeque and sandwich platters are key to make sure everyone on the guest list leaves your party raving about how amazing the food was!  A catered corporate picnic or luncheon without good food is no party at all!  And of course you can’t forget the best in desserts.  Your party guests must have something sweet and yummy to end the night with.

3. Find the right venue

Finding the right atmosphere is also important to confirm you are able to have the best staff barbeque party!  Working with the right catering company is a sure fire way to find the right spot for your gathering.  Make sure you find out what your chosen catering company will provide, barbeque, tables, chairs and more.  From there you will know what type of place you need to book to meet all of your needs.  It can be your office, a park, or renting a venue of your choice.  If you are looking for an all-inclusive option, Smokin Bones BBQ Catering does it all!  You may even want to consider finding a locale that becomes your yearly destination for a fun seasonal party for all of your crew.  This would make things more efficient year after year for planning your annual catered corporate picnic!
